Overcharging?

Postby RV2 » Sat Apr 03, 2010 5:09 pm

Hey guys, a couple of weeks ago I noticed the smell of battery acid and the battery seemed to be overcharging so I made the mistake of buying a new ecm, thinking that was the problem, I let the truck sit for a few days and when I went to start the truck it was stone dead jumped the battery and it ran, then I tested the battery and it was no good so I purchased a new battery and checked all my fusible links plus I cleaned the battery terminals.
I started it up and put my meter on the alt and it was putting out 13.93 and then I put the meter on the battery and it was at 13.89.
What do you guys think? maybee the last step would be the alt?

I think it was a bad battery the whole time.
